that he is now in prime condition to
give Corbett a hard tussle for the vic-
tory.
Corbett is a fighter who takes a long
time to get into condition, and he has
had none too long a period to prepare
himself for the forthcoming encounter.
He has done his preparatory work at
Bath Beach, near New York, where he
has had the aid of Gus Ruhlin and
Charlie Goff. The latter is a clever

^l„fHEN Greek meets Greek, then

old saw is very applicable to
the forthcoming contest between Jim
Corbett and “Kid” McCoy. These two
boxers are the most scientific exponents
of ring tactics, both with hands and
feet, now living, and the lovers of the
sport have long looked forward to a
meeting between them.
McCoy is one of the shrew’dest and

ing to ShotTiei’ change made in the
rules, hotheaded players and others
who are guilty of unsportsmanlike con-
duct during the game may also cause
their team to lose ten yards.
These changes were probably nec-
essary and will work all right in actual
play, but I would venture a warning to
the gentlemen of the rules committee
to be .careful in future about tinkering
with the sport. Football is a virile
game, and by no means a gentle one.
To make it so would be to kill it. It
would behoove the rulemakers to be-
ware that they do not become too pa-
ternal in their anxiety to make
changes.
About this time of year it is usual
for the well wishers and wise men of
baseball to put their heads together
and consider what changes and im-
provements can be made in the nation-
al game. By this time the workings of most long headed pugilists in the busi-

PROPER GOLF CLOTHES.
To the superficial observer a golf
player is the most unconventional per-
son in the world about matters of
dress. Almost anything seems to do
for a tramp over the links, and a man’s
comfort appears to be the only arbiter
of the clothes he shall wear. In reality,
however, fashions are as well defined
in golf as anywhere else. One of the
noticeable things about the game this
season is that knickerbockers have
been almost, entirely discarded. Last
spring, when the English fashion pa-
pers talked about the abandonment of
the useful “knickers,” players here
laughed at the idea, but . at the recent
amateyf championship it was noticed
that the great majority of contestants
wore long trousers, and the same is
true of other contests.
There is certainly no reason why a
man should feel obliged to put on a pair
of knickerbockers when he goes to a
golf links. They don’t contribute any
more to his comfort or help him play a
better game than the ordinary trousers.
Perhaps the change is due to fashion,
but more likely to common sense. To
don a pair of “knickers,” button the ex-
tremities and pull on a pah’ of long
stockings takes time and gets to be a
bore. Moreover, the heavy tweed and
worsted are much warmer than long
trousers, and on a real hot day golf
players, like everybody else, are on the
lookout for something cool.
But, whatever cause is ascribed for
the change, the fact remains that the
Scottish mode of dress is out of favor.
The mistake most people make is in
thinking that some elaborate costume
is necessary for golf playing. If they
knew that Travis, Douglas, Harriman
and the rest of the crack players fre-
quently pick up their clubs and start
out without so much as changing a
necktie, they would probably worry
less about their summer outfit. The
best advice for the man who intends to
spend his vacation playing golf is: “Be
as unconventional as you like. If you
play a good game, nobody will care
what you wear, and if you don’t all the
clothes in the world won’t make you a
golfer.”
by the champion in the lattef part of
the encounter with Corbett did the lat-
ter a good deal of damage and impaired
his vitality, which was never great.
They regard McCoy as benefited by his
long rest and believe that in point of
science he is fully the equal of Corbett.
It is by this line of reasoning that they
figure him out as the winner.
In most of the heavyweight fights of
today we see the slugger pitted against
the boxer or one slugger against an-
other. Here we have two scientific
fighters, and the problem of picking the
winner is seriously troubling the sport-
ing fraternity.

McCoy, though not his equal in spar-

The contest between the two men will
not resolve itself into a slugging match,
with the odds on the harder hitter.
Feinting, leg work and sparring will be
largely indulged in. It is not at all un-
likely that the mill will go the limit.
The result will probably hinge in a
great measure on the condition of the
two men. If Corbett has not trained
properly because he underestimates the
“Kid’s” prowess, then the latter may
win out by reason of his better condi-
tion and the weakness of his opponent
in the latter part of the contest.
Corbett will probably not try to mix
it at all with his opponent, as he
knows full well the force that McCoy
can put into his blows at short range.
Owing to the fact that he stood off
Champion Jim Jeffries for 23 rounds,
Corbett is a strong favorite with the
public.

the new rules can be seen and altera-
tions can be discussed with profit.
This year, however, more weighty
considerations are putting such matters
rather into the shade. Next season the
ten year agreement, under which the
National league clubs are now playing,
will expire, and a new one will have to
be drawn up.
The Players’ Protective association
was very opportunely organized by the
workingmen of baseball, and through it
the players will probably have a good
deal to say in regard to some of the
rules of the new organization.
A few weeks ago the magnates of the
major league gave out that next sea-
son the salary limit will be reduced
and other plans tried to lessen ex-
penses, owing to the falling off of inter-
est in baseball. This was only a feeler
put out by the magnates. It seems
rather a foolish plan to have sent out
this statement, for everything of this
kind tends to widen the breach between
employers and employed. As to actual-
ly reducing their salaries, the players
simply laugh at such a proposal. The
limit now is $2,400, but there are dozens
of men who get more than that. Their
' contracts may call for just $2,400, but
an extra amount as a “present” or for
“extra services” is easily arranged.
The association which tried to form
a league in some of the big cities in op-
position to the National league is said
to be working away in secret, and it is
rumored that next spring it will start
out in earnest, with stronger support
and well laid plans. The magnates of
the major league are in somewhat of a
tremble lest the players desert in a
body to the new organization at the
close of the season. This is not at all
likely, but if the new body does start
in business it is likely to become a
formidable rival.
LEO ETHERINGTON.
A GOLF MASCOT.
A mascot seems to be a feature which
has been considered a valuable adjunct
to golf by one of our prominent profes-
sionals—Open Champion Willie Smith
of Chicago, who ought surely to be an
authority on such a matter. The other
day a dilapidated old crow, whose rusty
plumage showed signs of having been
damaged by a load of bird shot, flapped
into Smith’s shop on the Midlothian
links and began helping itself to some
luncheon which happened to be on a
bench.
Dave Bell threw up his hands and
ejaculated, “Bad luck!”
“No,” said Smith; “good luck.”
“Caw!” said the crow, and flew to
Smith’s shoulder. Now, the open cham-
pion and the faded out crow are the
best of friends. The bird sleeps in an
old caddy bag, and every time the
champion goes to play the faithful bird
flies out to a tree, caws a few times,
and then, flapping his abbreviated
wings, returns to the clubhouse.
Since the crow arrived Smith has not
failed to make a good score on the Mid-
lothian links, which, perhaps, accounts
for his faith in the mysterious bird.
Smith is playing machinelike golf over
the Blue island course, and the other
day he set a record for the links that
will not be beaten soon.

BIRDS KILLED BY GOLFERS.
The news reports recently chronicled
the killing of a sparrow in midair by a
golf ball driven from the tee. This is
the first report this season of a not un-
usual incident. At the Richmond Hill
Golf club there is mounted a robin
that was killed in flight in this way by
Alger C. Gildersleeve, and at the St.
Andrew’s open tournament of 1897,
while playing over the ridge to the
glenlike twelfth green, Graham F.
Blandy found that his ball, in this case
from a brassie shot, had put a chip-
munk out of existence. It is on record
at the Crescent Athletic club that a
player once decapitated a duck swim-
ming about on the “casual water” that
in the early spring fills the hollow be-
tween the sixth tee and the cop bunker.
But this was a topped drive, and the
offender very willingly paid over the
value put on the fowl by the indignant
owner. On this topic Golf Illustrated of
London tells this story:
“The following is reported from Gul-
tane. At the eleventh hole a player
pulled his driver, and when he found
his ball a rabbit, apparently dead, lay
beside it. The player took up the rab-
bit, intending to stuff it as a memento
of his exploit, and at the foot of the
hill he laid it down to play his third
shot, but before he got this done the
animal bolted. It is certainly unfor-
tunate that the hero of this story failed
to stuff the rabbit. The human species
are so much more difficult to stuff.”

ness. Some years ago he foresaw that
a meeting between himself and Corbett
was a probability, and he determined
that it should not occur until he was
good and ready. McCoy is a very hard
worker, and he will go to any proper
lengths to further his ends. When he
entered the ring, he determined that
he would climb to the topmost height.
With this end in view he set to work in
a businesslike manner. Realizing that
he had not the frame generally consid-
ered necessary to a heavyweight pu-
gilist, he determined to overcome this
handicap by becoming very clever as a
boxer. To accomplish his purpose he
has entered the camps of other fighters
in any capacity so as to learn their
methods and study their styles. He
learned all that Tommy Ryan, the fa-
mous middleweight, could teach him,
and has absorbed as much knowledge
from other men.
When Corbett started to train for
his bout with Jeffries last spring, Mc-
Coy, realizing that he would probably
fight the Californian within the year,
offered himself as trainer for the ex-
champion. Had Corbett accepted his
offer McCoy would now be in possession
of every feint and move made by Cor-
bett when in the ring and would thus
have a decided advantage over him.
McCoy is a very shifty fighter. If
his legs were only stronger and his
frame somewhat heavier, he would un-
doubtedly be the champion of the
world, for he can deliver a very heavy
blow. McCoy’s legs are his weakest
part. They are apt to give way during
the course of a fight. One peculiar fea-
ture about McCoy is that he is the
hardest short arm hitter in the ring.
He can get close in to his opponent
and deliver a blow from a distance of
six inches or so which will put a man
out if it lands right. Most fighters fol-
low up their blows with the weight of
the body to add to its effectiveness;
but in the case of McCoy this is not at
all necessary, as his short arm blows
seem to be just as hard gs those deliv-
ered from a greater distance.
People who see McCoy for the first
time, when he is right on edge for a
fight, often think that he is ill. In
fact, out of the ring he looks more like
a pale, well dressed broker than a pu-
gilist. A great many people think
there is sometl^ing wrong with him
physically, though they cannot tell
what it is. Asr p. matter of fact, when
McCoy first werA New York to fight,
one of his an-^go^ists demanded that
he be examined d!nd the state of his
health passed upon by a physician be-
fore he would consent to box with him.
“I don’t want to be responsible for
killing any rnan/’Mie said when asked
for an explanation*of his strange con-
duct. McCoy nht oiily passed the phys-
ical examination-A’®th flying colors, but i
went in and metty nearly basted the !
life out of thej^eljpw who thought he
looked like a candidate for a consump-
tive’s home.
McCoy is really a much stronger, fel-
low than one would judge by looking at
him. He has several times, however, .
broken down while in training and been
obliged to postpone the encounter or
give it up altogether. He and his
friends declare that his recent long rest
has been of great benefit to him, and

OTHER TOPICS
OF CURRENT INTEREST.

’ As a result of the recent international
£ames in Faris a suggestion has come
from that city for the formation of a
permanent international athletic organ-
ization. There is such a body in con-
nection with cycling, and it is thought
THE WOMEN’S NATIONAL
GOLF TOURNAMENT.
of ths weeic
that an organization embracing all
athletic sports would greatly stimulate
the interest in such matters.
Of course, if such a union could be
formed,* it certainly would be a good
thing in many ways, especially as re-
gards holding international contests.
It would also tend to bring the differ-
ent competitions under’ the same rules
in all countries, which would be a good
thing. However, I don’t think that
anything of moment will be done in
the matter for some time to come, be-
cause our athletes, having made such a
vastly better showing than any in the
old world, would naturally want most
of the officers and the location of the
headquarters in America. The other
countries wmuld hardly agree to this,
and a conference, if one were held,
would probably deadlock right at the
start.
Some years ago a well known writer
on sporting topics in this country had
in mind just such a scheme in connec-
tion with the different sports in this
country. He was very enthusiastic and
even went so far as to talk over the
matter with officials of big organiza-
tions such as the A. A. U., the Intercol-
legiate association and the L. A. W
which then controlled bicycle racing.
As I have heard nothing in regard to
the plan from him for months past I
presume he found it a hopeless task to
start it.
f^HERE is lots doing in golfdom just
f at present all over the country,
but during the coming week the
center of attraction will be the playing
of the women golfers of the United
States over the course of the Shinne-
cock Hills club at Southampton, L. I.
-The women’s championship has been
an interesting event since its inception,
but never so much so as this year. For
one thing, the entry list is the most
representative ever sent in to the com-
mittee. It contains the names of fair
golfers from a large number of states.
Another explanation of the increase in
interest may be found in the fact that
until a year ago, when Miss Ruth Un-
derhill cleverly won the championship,
it was commonly thought that there
was no woman player in this country
in the same class as Miss Beatrix Hoyt,
the three times winner of the title. The
success of Miss Underhill has induced
many women to enter who would not
have done so had Miss Hoyt won last
year for the fourth successive time.
Last summer the women’s national
tournament was held at Bala, near
Philadelphia, over the Country club
course. Miss Hoyt lost her title there
in the first round through overconfi-
dence, according to her friends. The
same excuse will hardly be in order
again, as this season she has already
been defeated for the metropolitan
championship by Miss Marion Hecker.
Miss Hoyt has, however, been diligent-
ly practicing over the course at Shin-
necock hills for the past few weeks
and is said to be in excellent form and
confident of regaining her laurels.
These links are the home grounds of
the ex-champion, and she pretty thor-
oughly understands their peculiarities.
In view of this fact it should require
some very excellent playing to defeat

her.
On the other hand, the class of play-
ers in the field against Miss Hoyt is
very different from that of a few years
ago. American women have taken
kindly to golf since its introduction to
this country, and constant practice has
made a good many of them very pro-
ficient. Consequently, they will not be
so easily disposed of as in former years.
The Shinnecock Hills course is an
ideal one for the contest, and the very
fact that it is rather short for use in a
men’s tournament is a decided advan-
tage in this instance, as the strain of
the week’s play wiil not be so heavy.
The course, as laid out, calls for sterling
golf all the way through. Bad play,
such as pulling or slicing the ball, is
punished by landing in bad places, but
at the same time the Shinnecock is in
too sense of the word a tricky course.
The accommodations for the players
Rnd visitors are of the best, both as
Regards boarding houses and hotels,
while the cottagers will keep open
house and entertain lavishly during the
.week of play.
The rules committee of the Intercol-
legiate Football association have only
made foui- changes as a result of their
work this year. Two of them, strange
to say, do not refer to the playing of
the game at all, and one has nothing to
do with the actual players. One new
rule deals with the matter of side line
coaching, which was brought up as a
result of the Yale-Princeton game last
season. The new rule says that only
five representatives of each team, in-
cluding the attendants, shall be allowed
on the side lines. All others must be
outside the ropes. Aside from the fact
that the danger of coaching from the
lines will thus be materially lessened,
spectators will welcome the change be-
cause in many games the small army of
Corbett and McCoy have both trained
very faithfully for their forthcoming
contest because they knew very well
that whichever loses will no longer be
able to pose as a factor in the pugilistic
world. Corbett’s greatest desire is to
get on another contest with Jim Jef-
fries, as it is his opinion that, with the
experience gained in their formei’ en-
counter, he will be able to stand off
the attacks of the burly champion for
the whole 25 rounds. If he should suc-
ceed in doing that, he would certainly
be awarded the»decision on points.
This being the case and knowing that
he would have to defeat somebody else
before Jeffries would consent to meet
him again, he picked McCoy as the
easiest proposition in sight among the
prominent heavyweights. McCoy’s rea-
son for engaging in a bout with Cor-
bett is almost exactly the same. He
simply had to fight or be counted out
as a has been.

done a good deal of stock work, which is admitted by the most competent
fudges to be the best possible training a young man can have, and as he is
a handsome, manly looking fellow, it is believed that he will add greatly to
his reputation by his interpretation of the role of Don John of Austria in.

THE NEW RULE3 FOR •'<«
FOOTBALL PLAYERS.
Cleaner and more sportsmanlike play!
is expected to result from the latest
changes in the rules of college football.
Four radical changes have been mad®
in the playing rules of the great grid-
iron game, each of which it is thought
will bring improvement without af-
fecting the style of play in the least.
Some of the new departures in the
rules are known, having already been
discussed and agreed upon, but there
is one change about which little or.
nothing was known except to the mem-
bers of the rules committee. It has to
do with “unsportsmanlike conduct.”
Anything that the umpire may con-
strue to be unsportsmanlike conduct
may be penalized by a loss of ten yards
by the offending side. Unsportsman-
like conduct, it is said, may be done by;
not only a player or-substitute, but by;
a sympathizer. Just how or why aft
outsider could be guilty of unsports*
manlike conduct of such a nature that’
the team should suffer thereby is by n<>
means clear, and a practical illustra*
tion of this point will be awaited witli!
interest by football followers. As to’
the players, the throwing of his head>f
gear by a player at an opponent is cited
as coming under the head of unsports-
manlike conduct. Such instances arqi
so rare that the rule seems superfluous.
Slugging is unsportsmanlike conduct^
but that is already provided for.
After the Harvard-Yale game last
year there was much agitation of tha
rule permitting one side to retain the
ball if there was a 20 yard loss aftej?
four ineffectual attempts to advance It
five yards. The committee has dealt
with this question. It has dealt with it
in a maanner as simple as it is judi-
cious. The rule hereafter can only be
taken advantage of once in a game*
Regarding the question of substitute®
and “heelers” on the side lines, that
nuisance is to be obviated in a measure*
hereafter. Only five representatives ofi
each team shall have the privilege of
moving up and down the side lines*
All others shall remain seated. It would
have been still better, according to the
general opinion, if only five representa-
tives altogether were allowed on the
lines. Coaching from the side lines
means a ten yard penalty. The chance®
are there will be some penalties for in*
fraction of this rule, inasmuch as the
restrictions are not sufficiently severe.
The committee has provided that the
head coach, medical adviser, trainer
and two others be permitted to wander
up and down the side lines.
The committee decided that the loss
of the ball was too severe a penalty;
for off side play, and henceforth the of-
fending team will lose ten yards in-
stead of the ball—if it happens to have
the ball. No change was made in the
system of scoring. A goal from the
field continues to count as much as a
touchdown. | j
MARINE GOLF. ' T
new departure in the game t®
known as marine golf, which is only a'
distant relative of the “royal and an*
cient,” but its novelty may commend if
to those who want amusement on long
sea voyages. It is evident that a ball
is out of question, and in its place is
employed a disk of wood about four,
and one-half inches in diameter. A''
rather heavy walking stick, with a
right angled, flat, crooked head, is the
“club,” and serves every purpose, from'
driving to holing out. The holes are
circles about six inches in diameter
chalked upon the deck, and the links
are only bounded by the available deck
space, the good nature of the captain
and the rights, of the nongolfing pas-
sengers.
Hatches, companionways and decig
furniture in general serve as bunkenS,
and the ship’s rolling is an omnipresent
hazard. As the disk is propelled over
the deck and not sent into the air, hit*
ting is useless, and the proper stroke is
something between a push and a drag,
with the club laid close behind the disk,
the shuffleboard push from behind be*
ing barred.
The carom is permissible and fur-
nishes occasion for scientific play, but
the great sport of the game lies in the
skillful utilization of the pitching and
rolling of the ship. The disk takes al
bias from the angle of the deck, and
some impossible shots may be trium-
phantly made—round the corner, for in-
stance. Even in putting, marine gol£
may lay just claim to the variety which!
is the spice of life. On a gray day the
boards will be half as slow again as
when the sun is shining, while with!
any spray coming aboard it is impos*,
sible to tell whether the disk will drag
or slide.
“CASH” SLOANE A GREAT JOCKEY,
While the redoubtable James Tod-
hunter Sloane has been making his
great record in England, Cassius Sloane
has taken first place among the jockeys
in France. “Cash” Sloane is Tod’s
brother and was a fairly successful
jockey in this country when Tod was
not very much sought after.
“Cash” left here about three months
ago because he was unable to get al
license to ride in this country. He
went to England, and Tod took him to
France. He has done well there, and
within the past few weeks has become
the star of the French turf. He has
been piloting winners with great regu-
larity and is now making more money
and receiving more attention than he
has ever been used to.
“Cash” is not as polished a man of
the world out of the saddle as Tod is.
In a race he is willing to take chances
at all times. He was known here as a.
rough and ready rider, ready to squeeze
through the smallest sort of hole if the
occasion required it. “Cash” is heavier
than Tod and does not resemble th®
friend of the British nobility in any re*
spect but height.
